Description
Summary:This volume provides new insight into the histogenesis of bone tumors, in particular fibrohistiocytic tumors, chondromas, and chondroid chordomas. The potential of various techniques - immunohistology, flow cytometry - for improved classification and differential diagnosis is discussed. In particular, Ewing's sarcoma and other round cell sarcomas of bone are treated. Methods for determining proliferation behavior are included; and new data on the role of bone-specific proteins is presented for the first time.
